CB Beal coined the term “preemptive radical inclusion” in 2012 to capture the idea that to be our best, most inclusive selves and communities, we must make the work of inclusion a lifelong process in which we are continuously expanding the circle of welcome. They have said that preemptive radical inclusion is not the goal, but the opening of the door. In this service we explore preemptive radical inclusion as an expression of our Unitarian Universalist values, and how this framework can support our engagement with our contemporary world.
